When Raccoons Attack

January 27, 2009 at 10:45 pm

There are some newspapers that only bring you the news you really need to read. The Austrian Times is not one of them. We learn the invaluable revelation that Raccoon Bites Off Perverts Penis. Nope, not making this stuff up. A raccoon has bitten off a pervert’s penis as he […]

Another Victory For The Gipper

January 25, 2009 at 12:35 am

TheEye refused to blog on the love-fest that the MSM and especially the BBC had with the anointing of the Obamessiah. It’s still possible not to break that pledge by just reporting that the inauguration of The One was watched by 37.8 million Americans. The Reagan inauguration in 1981 was […]

All Seeing Eye Curses US Dollar

January 24, 2009 at 6:08 pm

TheEye advised visitors that blogging would be erratic or incoherent this weekend as St. Crispin and myself were going to be sharing a beerage with a wide variety of the denizens of Gibraltar. This has turned out to be accurate. Just after lunchtime was the hour of TheEye’s awakening. Therefore […]

Guns and Laptops…Marvellous!

January 22, 2009 at 2:46 am

It would amaze TheEye if the Auburn Plainsman newspaper from Alabama wasn’t on everyone’s daily read list, so you won’t have missed their Nov12-18 Crime Report via the Auburn Department of Public Safety. Compare and contrast all of the reports: Nov. 12, Hudson Terrace – Burglary reported. One pair of […]

Exclusive: Dog Bites Man

January 22, 2009 at 2:00 am

It’s taken a while, but finally the ultimate headline…”Dog Bites Man”. The increasingly pointless Daily LabourGraph, which TheEye purchases now purely for the crossword, announces on a Jug-Eared-Bloke-Is-Now-Leader-Of-Free-World and Rockets-Fired-At-Israel-Shocker day that “Chirac Bitten By Pet Dog“. Apparently he was “violently bitten” by his white Maltese dog ‘Sumo’, which is […]

The Israeli Elections

January 18, 2009 at 10:01 pm

It must be said that The Croydonian is a sound cove, and an excessive quaffing of alcohol with him would strike anyone as a night well spent. TheEye hasn’t enjoyed one yet but intends to do so as soon as possible. However Mr C has a post on his site […]

Aussie Sub Commander In Hot Water

January 17, 2009 at 12:42 pm

There were three options for the picture to go with this article; Commander Tom Phillips (Royal Australian Navy), his submarine HMAS Farncomb, or a girl in a bikini. A no-brainer for your genial hosts Our gallant commander is quoted in an interview with Australian men’s mag Ralph saying that that […]

TheEye Has A Rival

January 15, 2009 at 8:02 pm

Being a non-corporeal entity TheEye usually laughs in the face of challengers. This eye-related story, however, oversteps the mark. From the never-to-be-ignored Austrian Times: Kung Fu eyeballs a sight to see. “A Chinese man claims to have the toughest eyeballs in the world after finding he could pour sand on […]

TheEye and St Crispin On The Loose

January 13, 2009 at 6:08 pm

St Crispin and TheEye will be getting together for a few ceremonial pink gins and an exchange of gripping yarns in Gibraltar between the 22nd and 25th of January. We don’t get together as often as we’d like, so the beerage intake opportunity will not be wasted. Any fellow bloggers, […]

Bank Holiday Monday: Gibraltar Style

January 12, 2009 at 7:44 am

Some readers of TheEye and St Crispin reside in Gibraltar, and they will be snoozing this morning. Or down the pub early. Maybe both. Why? Because a few years ago Gib took the EU to court in a battle to maintain the right of the Gibraltar Parliament to set its […]
